Used And Vintage Acoustic Guitars

 Lately, we've been lucky enough to take in a few different Boucher guitars - each has been fantasic, but this one may take the trophy home.  It's a J.P. Cormier 000-12 with a cutaway, made out of some seriously impressive woods.

Based on the Boucher HG-56 000-12FTB – the 12FTB stands for “12 Frets To Body” – the Boucher JP Cormier model adds a cutaway, an Abalone Rosette, and Koa for the back strip, body binding, and end graft.  

The highest grade woods are used – AAAA grade, torrefied Adirondack Spruce for the top, Indian Rosewood for the sides and back, Mahogany for the neck and Ebony for the fingerboard and bridge. Mother of Pearl is used for the Boucher logos at the head and octave fret. Hardware is minimal – the nut and saddle are bone, and the tuners are top shelf Gotoh models built for use with a slotted peghead.

This is a fantastic guitar, designed for use by a highly skilled fingerstylist.  It's very balanced, with a perfect representation of the full tonal spectrum.  It projects nicely, without getting boomy, and never sounds shrill or harsh.

This one also has a factory installed active K&K preamp, so you can plug in and amplify whenever needed. 

The guitar has been vetted and setup to play perfectly.  Includes the original hardshell case, Certificate of Authenticity and one of the most beautiful tones you'll ever hear.  

Serial #  JP-1039-12FTB

On July 7, 2016, JP Cormier bought his first Boucher guitar. Since then, and without asking for anything back, this artist with immeasurable talent and generosity constantly praises the merits of Boucher guitars. Wishing to point out the great contribution of JP regarding the growing popularity of the brand, they wanted to offer him a guitar. But not just any guitar!

A JP Cormier Signature model truly designed to reflect the great qualities of this great ambassador of the Boucher Guitars brand. So, they had to create a guitar with a unique look and a frank, generous, authentic, and versatile sound. The addition of an exclusive cutaway to their 12-fret 000 body-size adorned with a neck headstock design reminiscent of all Boucher models is a reminder of the great JP’s qualities.

A versatile guitar for a versatile musician!
